I'm in a pretty amazing relationship with a kind, intelligent, compassionate, ambitious and creative person. That person is ME, and for the first time in my adult life. I'm finally learning to be okay with being by myself.

Be your own parent. Don't beat yourself up when you fall down, celebrate the learning and love yourself regardless of what you achieve or don't achieve.

Step 4. Celebrate Your Mistakes

Have your own hobbies and passions, things you really love doing for yourself.This not only makes you more attractive but you start to really enjoy your own life more. When people see what a good time you’re having, they want to be a part of that.

Self esteem grows everytime you make an effort to celebrate yourself and your success.
